While Commissioner Dan McDonald spends his days working on behalf of Bonner County residents, his opponent spends his time misstating budget facts.

While Commissioner McDonald is busy answering constituents’ questions at all hours of the day, his opponent is busy ignoring questions on social media, offering empty platitudes on issues he has no control over, and dodging debates with his opponent.

While Commissioner McDonald spends his days planning how he’ll continue the effective work he’s done in his first term--including slashing expenses, protecting our property rights, and rewarding the work of our invaluable county employees--his opponent is busy skipping town to avoid scrutiny.

The choice is clear: Mr. Lockwood — who either doesn’t understand the role of a county commissioner or the budgeting process, or is purposefully misleading voters and telling them what he thinks they want to hear — is a no-show.

Commissioner McDonald is available, transparent, and highly experienced in efficiently managing large budgets and personnel, and has proven as much by keeping all of his campaign promises in his first term.

Please join me in voting for Dan McDonald on Nov. 6.
